Saucony Scat and Dove 1977 three stripe vintage sneaker ad

Nope, not adidas. In our last post we posted some 3 stripe vintage Sears the Winner II sneakers and today we're back with another 3 stripe pair of runners, this time from Saucony. This ad is from 1977 for their Scat and Dove model Women's running and track shoes. This original vintage Saucony print ad is available at our web store Rewind Running.

Ad info is below:

Ladies’ First.

SCAT women's track shoe, rated first by Runner's World in 1977.

DOVE women's training shoe, rated first by Runner's World in 1976.

Saucony Scat is the top-ranked women's spiked shoe because it's specifically designed for the woman runner. It's not just an adaptation of our popular men's Speedstar, or any other model in our full line of men's track shoes. The Scat's uppers are soft, well-padded blue nylon. The bottom, with a small heel lift, is suited for both sprints and distance running. Heel and ankle collars are well-padded for comfort. And the chevron-claw spike plate with seven receptacles is a Saucony exclusive. Dove, the top-ranked women's training shoe for 1976, has a flared heel and suction cup traction sole. The tongue and quarter are fully padded. The Dove's uppers are lightweight, soft, white nylon with color-coordinated blue trim. You know how important good shoes are for comfort and performance. So remember the name. Saucony. Top-ranked women's shoes for training and competition at a lower price than any ranked shoe, regardless of category.

We're out in front. And we're going to stay there.
